Is anyone able to claim this price? Or Prime exclusive?
Prime exclusive.
It doesn't say it is a prime exclusive, but yeah opening it up in an incognito window shows the $39.98 price.
Right underneath the % claimed it has the Prime logo. Happy to be corrected but I thought that means it is a Prime exclusive.
@sobriety22: Prime exclusive pricing usually has something that says that it's a Prime exclusive price. I can't find any examples as most of the deals right now that are Prime Exclusive are formatted a little differently.
i need a good impact driver deal to pair with this lol

Will these rust?
Good question my ryobi set is still useable but all rusted!
I've had this set for about a year and they haven't rusted
Yes, if you leave them in a moist environment. I'd spray them with wd40 or similar straight away to cut down any potential rusting.
They're surprisingly rust resistant, i found a ph2 bit in the grass i must have dropped at least a month before and there was only the lightest hint of rust and we'd had a few wet days.
Dont want no, dont want noooo short bits man!!!
Thanks Op, bought one
imperial sockets though
Fixings sold in Australia still use imperial for hex head size - you buy roofing screws in 3/8 or 5/16, and these sets are typically geared towards inserting fixings.
Noob question but you should be able to use these with any brand driver right or are the shanks designed only for DeWalt Drivers?
Any brand is fine - they're just normal hex bits
Thanks mate 🙏

I think it’s more important to learn to use these properly. When I bought my first ever ph2, it was a pair. Curious, I asked the staff as to why anyone would need to buy more than one of the same size at a time. They said because they wear. When I got home and had a go, it instantly clicked as to why that was the case. Anyhow, give yourself some time and learn to do it so not to wear the bits and you probably won’t need more than a pair.
I hate Phillips screws and bits. They are designed to slip, so you don't break screws, but in doing that they destroy the screw head and the bits. Pozidrive are much better.
How would you learn to use it and not damage it? Just curious, don't know anything about drill bits
Same as how you would learn other skills, watch, ask questions and practice.
I once worked at a place making a special pallet that was used for the meat industry, for placing under large cardboard boxes used for export. They were called a slipper and were about 1200L x 300W x 125H. These were constructed with two bearers and a top and bottom 12mm ply sheet. The ply had to be glued, nailed and then screwed to the bearer for strength. I must have used tens of thousands of phillips head screws making them things. Using a drill driver with the clutch setting was a real pain. Either the screw stripped or the bit broke quite often. I changed to setting the clutch on the highest setting so I didn't get that hammering you get with this and simply learned to judge when the screw was just below the surface of the ply and released the trigger.Took a bit of practice but rarely stripped a screw or broke a bit after that. A fair bit of downward pressure with the bit in the screw head helps.
Finally something to replace the garbage Bosch green set I got sucked in to
I've got the garbage Bosch set - its been fine but for $25 I'll relegate the green ones to light duty
I got one of the green sets. Good enough for odd jobs, but agree the case and bit holders are pretty crappy.
I went with this one instead, https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B01NBTS2KL/ref=ppx_yo_d… , dispatched from AU as well so fast delivery. Bosch (non-green) is good stuff.
Just got a set.

If anyone could please clarify for me, it'd be appreciated. I don't don't much about drills, their accessories, etc.
Are these drill bits or are these specialty bits(?) that you use for specific job uses? If these are drill bits, can i use these to drill into thick wood and brick?
Could i use these on a ryobi or ozito drill? Which type of drill would i need: impact or hammer drill? If you could link to a drill aa an example, it'd be great
There are two types of drills,
1) hammer/normal drill are designed for drilling holes into wood, bricks,metal etc
2) impact drill are designed for driving (screwing) screws into wood, bricks, metal etc.
The impact drill have a "hammer/knocking" action that increases the torque (turning force)
This kit is specific for impact drill. It's a "screw driving" kit.
The kit is generic for all impact driver drills.
A tale tail sign of the type of drill you have is normal/Hammer drills have speed setting whereas an impact drill generally does not. The other feature is the impact drill has a haxagon lock instead of a screw lock with clamps to secure the drill pieces.
Note this kit does not contain drill pieces to drill holes.
Thank you for the detailed reply, really appreciate it:)
There are no drill bits in this set. These are screwdriver bits.
These are normally used with impact drivers but when I first started out a long time ago, I used it on a hammer drill but not while activating the hammer function. Just the drill function on the low speed on the gearbox and setting the "torque dial" appropriately.
Mine arrived today, so just over a week for delivery. Speedy!
The packing slip though made me check my order as it had $34.33 including shipping for the product etc.
What's the longest bit with a round silver drum used for?
I didn't know what it was for either so had to look it up. It's for holding screws in place on the 50mm bits which aren't magnetic.
Here is a short video (total is 39s but I skipped a bit):
Best thing about this set is lots of PH2 bits.
